the new cryptopsy album[views:3388][posts:24]______________________________ [Oct 24,2005 3:36pm - BSV ""] FUCKING KILLS. I feel it's the total Cryptopsy experience taking a piece from every album in some way, shape or form. The songwriting is great. Worm's vokills reminded more of BMF than NSV. If you're a fan of Cryptopsy, I don't understand why you wouldn't like this album. I only got two spins of this so far and that was the other day, sorry it ain't that fresh in my head. |
_____________________________________ [Oct 24,2005 3:39pm - RustedAngel ""] The album should be called FLOTOPSY because the guitars are not presented well in the mix at all. The vocals make me laugh, they remind me of people who make fun of death metal vocals. I want Mike D. Back. I'm going to go cry now! |

Worms are phylum Annalid. . I was confused because of a sub-species of worm with the suffix -cephala, but I stand corrected, and completely Pwnt :bow: |

___________________________________ [Oct 24,2005 7:18pm - DEATH2ALL ""] I'm going to listen to this in about a half hour. The 2 tracks I've already heard were very good though. |

__________________________________ [Oct 24,2005 7:33pm - brian_dc ""] new Arsis tomorrow too, right? |
_____________________________________ [Oct 24,2005 8:21pm - the_rooster ""] i like it. hate the vocals, but i've managed to block them out. there's one song that is pitiful (i'm sure you all know which one i'm talking about). def. not as good as previous albums, but it is good. |
____________________________________________ [Oct 24,2005 9:22pm - aterribleguitarist ""] From the liner notes: Cryptopsy is: Lord Worm- vocals Alex Auburn- guitars and backing vocals Eric Langlois- bass Flo Mounier- drums, percussion and backing vocals all songs by Cryptopsy with the contribution of Jon Levasseur ouch!!!! that burns the album kicks ass by the way, innovative, yet true to their roots. and I'd have to say I disagree with the comments about the guitars being low in the mix...if anything i'd say the bass is too low in the mix. Eric Langlois is amazing. |
___________________________________ [Oct 25,2005 8:21pm - DEATH2ALL ""] I think it's great. I hear what you mean about the guitars, but I think that is part of their sound. You get used to the mix after the first listen. All around, progression & brutality! |
________________________________ [Oct 26,2005 8:37am - MadMac ""] production is HORRIBLE. i don't know why they wanted it to sound so raw and unbalanced and eq'ed wacked up. I think the song writing is pretty complex and intense but the production ruins it totally. drums sound like garbage cans. the bass needs to be clearer as he is incredible! nothing beats None so Vile and I still have their 4 song demo Ungentle Exhumation from 1993. But I no longer own a tape player. |
____________________________________ [Oct 26,2005 10:35am - Ionsphere ""] this album sucks. i cant even listen to one song without being completely annoyed. lord worm is a joke, and now this band is a joke. |
________________________________________________ [Oct 26,2005 10:43am - slowlypeelingtheflesh ""] Arent they still trying to replace Jon? |

Man I still have so many demos of killer bands on cassette,but no player...Skinless,Deaden,Lividity,Hate,Vader,Rottrevore,Abominog....I could go on forever...It fuckin sucks when you have killer shit like that and nuthin to listen to it on |
